17th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Only had to reproduce previous hurdles form to get off the mark in a pretty thin Southwell novice this month (2m4f, good), making all on his first outing since wind surgery; initial mark demands further improvement, but confidence will be high. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Hadn't been seeing out 3m too well in British points earlier in 2025, but outpaced on both hurdling starts in the summer (beaten 17l over C&D latest) and staying handicaps appeal as the way to go now. |

0-5 in points; got outpaced over 2m4f at Uttoxeter and finished just over 6l behind Ilestdancingspirit; more needed. |

Not seen on the Flat since hard-fought course win (2m1f, soft) last summer but produced career-best hurdle performance when winning on good ground last month and is evidently in very good nick; respected. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Failed to build upon fairly encouraging debut (2m4f) when well-held sixth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July but represents a top stable and ought to be capable of better at some stage; back up in trip today. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Too green to do himself justice when 16l fourth of eight on debut at Southwell (2m4f, good; 11-4); showed a bit all things considered. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who made the frame on his first three hurdling starts (2m4f, good/good to soft); ran poorly when last in action but moves up in trip for this handicap debut and should still have potential. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Similar sort of form in his three races over hurdles, here and at Market Rasen and Uttoxeter (all at about 2m4f); last time he chased home the long-odds-on favourite; every chance. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Didn't want for fitness on March's return from 22 months out at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft), only just missing out in a protracted duel, and coped fine with good ground before his layoff; chance. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
0-5 over hurdles and absent since June but shaped well before fading into third in C&D (good) maiden on that latest outing and could plausibly still have a bigger run in him on this handicap return. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |

Beaten in two bumpers and four runs over hurdles; has performed okay on occasions (including here) but needs to find extra to get his head in front. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Sole win came in a three-runner maiden hurdle; this mark should be manageable on the balance of his hurdle form but a forgettable chase debut in January needs forgiving; absent since. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
1-6 over hurdles, the win gained in a three-runner Sedgefield maiden (2m1f, good) in October; ran well before fading into fifth on last month's handicap debut at Catterick (2m3f, good) and has some slow-ground pointing experience to call upon on this chasing debut. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Runner-up at Perth (2m, good to soft) in September following wind surgery then easily went one better in three-runner maiden at Sedgefield (2m1f, good); things seems to have clicked and he could continue to progress; key player under penalty. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won maiden at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) last September but has lost her way; tried chasing on last two starts; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won maiden hurdle here (2m7f, good) in September but has lost her way since, and was tailed off on recent chasing debut; might be aided by the refitted tongue-tie but it takes a big leap of faith to support her. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made all here in January and now 2-4 over fences after repeating the dose when odds-on in a weak three-runner race at Southwell (again on soft); 6lb higher for this but it's another modest contest and this drier ground should be fine. |

2nd Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Faller on chase debut but made all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) next time then ran creditably at Sedgefield; may still have further progress in her at an ordinary level; respected. |

2nd 5 |
4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Running a big race when falling three out on chase debut at Exeter (2m3f, heavy) in December and confirmed that promise when making all at Plumpton (2m1f, soft) nine days ago; also effective on good to soft ground; a 7lb penalty may not stop this unexposed mare; wears first-time tongue-tie. |
